I hear/fear the same as for the HF. I am hoping I am wrong and the more money for curation will bring in more people?? Sounds a bit of a stretch, but what do I know. I figure as long as we are having fun, the lack of pay is mitigated somewhat. At least that is what I tell myself lol. Maybe someday if Steem Inc ever runs out of coins to sell, it will stop dropping.
A good weekend to you my friend.
